I looked around. All this time I'd been trying not to let her age bother me, but now I could see that was the least of our problems.

Every shoe tells a story — This piece was commissioned for The CW's The Carrie Diaries (prequel to Sex and the City). They wanted to show that Carrie Bradshaw had been obsessed with shoes her entire life, so we chose 3 childhood icons for the teenager's room: The Wizard of Oz's Dorothy, The Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe, and Cinderella. Originally they were meant to decorate Carrie's bathroom, but when the art arrived on set it was promoted to her bedroom, where it was seen in nearly every episode.
